Push pptr down into the FROM_MERGE branch of the if/else statement,
where it's actually used, and call commit_list_append() for appending
elements instead of playing tricks with commit_list_insert().  Call
copy_commit_list() in the amend branch instead of open-coding it.  Don't
bother setting pptr in the final branch as it's not used thereafter.

The "are we talking with TTY, doing an interactive session?"
detection has been updated to work better for "Git for Windows".

* kb/msys2-tty:
  mingw: make isatty() recognize MSYS2's pseudo terminals (/dev/pty*)

"git difftool" learned to handle unmerged paths correctly in
dir-diff mode.

* da/difftool:
  difftool: handle unmerged files in dir-diff mode
  difftool: initialize variables for readability

A couple of bugs around core.autocrlf have been fixed.

* tb/core-eol-fix:
  convert.c: ident + core.autocrlf didn't work
  t0027: test cases for combined attributes
  convert: allow core.autocrlf=input and core.eol=crlf
  t0027: make commit_chk_wrnNNO() reliable

Many commands normalize command line arguments from NFD to NFC
variant of UTF-8 on OSX, but commands in the "diff" family did
not, causing "git diff $path" to complain that no such path is
known to Git.  They have been taught to do the normalization.

* ar/diff-args-osx-precompose:
  diff: run arguments through precompose_argv

Correct faulty recommendation to use "git submodule deinit ." when
de-initialising all submodules, which would result in a strange
error message in a pathological corner case.

* sb/submodule-deinit-all:
  submodule deinit: require '--all' instead of '.' for all submodules

"http.cookieFile" configuration variable clearly wants a pathname,
but we forgot to treat it as such by e.g. applying tilde expansion.

* bn/http-cookiefile-config:
  http: expand http.cookieFile as a path
  Documentation: config: improve word ordering for http.cookieFile

Running tests with '-x' option to trace the individual command
executions is a useful way to debug test scripts, but some tests
that capture the standard error stream and check what the command
said can be broken with the trace output mixed in.  When running
our tests under "bash", however, we can redirect the trace output
to another file descriptor to keep the standard error of programs
being tested intact.

  test-lib: set BASH_XTRACEFD automatically
